FROM WASHINGTON.
from our Regular Correspondent
WASHINGTON, d. c.,
Aug. 4, 1887.

Aug. 4, 1851.
This is time when statesmen are
generally idle, house-fies and the Their
mometer most active, and affairs wear
a dull aspect, the dog days being at
hand, still the political world is not
entirely stagnant, for the eyes of Re
publicans everywhere are turned tow
ards Ohio, in whose convention ma
tional issues are to some extent in
volved, especially as regards the Pres
idential aspirations of Senator Sher-
man, who manfully stakes his politi-
cal future upon its action.
These thoughts naturally bring me
to the consideration of subject now
occupying the attention of reading
and thinking Republicans at Washing
ton, as well as elsewhere in the init
ed States. L allude to the able and
interesting paper of Gov. Foraker, of
of Ohio, contributed to the August
number of the Forum on that vital
question, ''The return of the Repub-
lican party" in which the great issues
of the day are forcibly and cogently
presented. The Governor writes like
a reasoner and a statesman, showing
that the two important and Overshad-
owing questions of the day, from a
Republican and patriotic standpoint,
are the suppressed colored vote of
the South, and the protective tariff,
neither of which can ever possibly
have proper treatment at the hands Of
the reactionary Democracy. One of
the most striking and convincing of
Governor Foraker's arguments is when
he shows that Georgia cast only
$4,000 votes for ten members of Con-
gress, while the number in Ohio, not
more populous than Georgia, was
upon a total vote of 100000 for ten
Congressman. And upon this basis
he dedueed the proposition that the
Solid South robbed Blaine and Logan
of SO electoral votes, defeating them
and fraudulentiy electing Mr.. Grover
Cleveland. The Governor gives facts
and figures to prove the ruinous poll
cy of free trade, as it worked under a
Democratic administration in 1860
and prior thereto, and the benefits de-
rived subsequent to that period from
the distinctively Republican doctrine
of protection to American industries
and interests. Your correspondent
is by no means alone in surmising that
Ohio's young Governor may develop
into a promising dark horse-another
Garfield as it were-in the next Re-
publican convention.
A report of the mineral resources
of the United States for the calendar
year 1886, soon to be issued by the |

mineral industries of that year were
generally characterized by both an in
crease of value and of production,
pig-iron taking the lead of all others,
being an advance in price Of IS cents

Several Indian chiefs called on the

The annual report of the Commits
sioner of Internal Revenue, shows an
increased production of malt liquors,
cigars, snuff and tobacco, and q de-
creased production of distilled spirits,
which latter fact will be very crafty,

total revenue collections from al
sources were Sis, S35,757, being 9
small increase over the previous year,
The Interstate Commission has
made the important and interesting
decision that drummers are not enti-
tied to reduced rates on the railroads,
but must pay regular fare, the same
as others, which action will be to the
decided disadvantage of the consum-
er of goods, who in the very nature
of things, must finally bear the ex-
pense of increased transportation,
while the railroads reap the only ben
eft, and on this item their receipts
will be largely augmented.
Hundreds of the clerks of the Ad-

these sultry, sweltering days in I'M

vice mill, for alleged promotion to va
cancies that do not exist, and which
they may never have opportunity to
fill, no matter how good an examina-
ton they pass. Such a travesty on
the civil service reform is worthy of
the hypocritical party of so-called re-
formers, who champion such foolish

A mass meeting Of the chivalry Of

nuisance, and notifies him that he had
better leave Manassas for its good and

Among the limited number of enter
prises in which Vermont, of all the
world besides, stands at the head, is
the manufacturing of fishing rods.
This may be surprise to many, but
nevertheless it is a pretty well anthem
ticated fact. Nearly every one under
stands that in marble and scales we
are so far in advance of our sister
States that we may be said to be in
these lines par excellence beyond COM
parison; and we do not know but we
are equally so on fishing rods. Many
have known of Post Mills Village sole
" by reason of its having been the
early home of the wealthy London
banker, George Peabody, whose mu-
nifcent requests are of worldwide
reputation. 1t is one of the modest
and pleasant little hamlets of our
State; lovely in location, and thrifty
in appearance, with the Peabody Lii
brary as one of its attractions. But
chiefest among its life-giving, thrift
promoting institutions, is the manu-
factory of Thomas II. Chubb, who
has built up the fshing-rod business
until his name is the synonym for the
best fishing-tackle from Greenland to
Cape Horn and from Australia to
Alaska. There is tinge of romance
about the establishment of this enter
prise which we have not the space to
give. In brief, Mr.. Chubb is a Texan
was in the Confederate service, lost
his health, came north, strayed into
the beautiful valley of the Connect
cut, wandered up the Ompomponoo-
sue, was charmed by its loneliness
and fingered, little dreaming that he
should ever make it mis- permanent
home, but as diversion turned out
few ash rods. They proved superior,
and the demand increased until to-day
he finds himself the largest manufac-
turer in the world, not only of ash
rods, but of bamboo and all the super
Tor woods which he imports in album
dance from all quarters of the globe.
Mr.. Chubb is a gentleman of great
liberality and public-spirit, and is uni
versaIIy respected. He was the Dem

TRAINING TO MEET CHANGE.-A
single discovery in chemistry, new
application of photography, a novel
use of electricity, is liable to change
at once the methods in vogue in a
whole group of industries, to render
obsolete costly machinery and pain
fully acquired skill. Hence all who
take interest in the kind of education
to be given in the common schools of
America may well demand that such
training shall be given the youth of
the rising generation as will best en-
able them to meet the ever-shifting
conditions which must inevitably re-
suit from the new discoveries, which
now seem always impending. To
teach trade which the next inven-
ton may destroy, to train a pupil in
the technical skill of a particular in
dustry, of which the next discovery
may make an end, seems plainly a
waste of time.-Frono Cd Nea0 Era
